Please say no to pesticides and herbicides. Cocktails of these chemicals in fields, gardens, parks, verges and community spaces are poisoning bees, birds, hedgehogs, butterflies, beetles, frogs, damselflies and more, while running off into rivers too. Let's give nature a chance!

Are you a SO Energy user with a Smart Meter? Keep an eye on your monitored usage - suddenly my daily usage went up (erroneously) x4 for 12 days this month! Cust. Care (sic) eventually told me this is a known issue, which is been worked on. I'm hoping that the issue doesn't feed through to the Bill.

Last day of our sale today 😊 Anyway, here's a Sunflower, still supporting wildlife at the end of September🌻 In this one shot I've counted 1 Bumblebee, 4 Hoverflies, 1 unidentified bug and at least 8 flies of various species 😍 I don't know who had a good feed on the leaf 😂🐛 #MHHSBD

A big, bright Sunflower with bright yellow petals and a yellow centre.
One leaf is visible that has been munched by someone unknown, probably a caterpillar.
The flower has many different insects visiting and is against a bright blue sky, crossed by a black telephone cable.

29 September is Michaelmas, the feast of St. Michael and All Angels. St. Michael, traditionally the celestial warrior who leads the fight against evil, is patron saint of soldiers, paratroopers and police officers. The Michaelmas daisy, or aster, is his dedicated flower.

Collage of Michaelmas daisies in shades of soft lilac-blue. A small copper butterfly rests with open wings on one flower, while a meadow brown feeds on another. Other images show clusters of the daisy-like flowers, with yellow centres, blooming in the late-summer garden.

Good morning! How are you holding up? What are you up to today? This handsome tree frog (Pacific Chorus Frog) was basking on an Angelica leaf in the garden yesterday. I've started shuffling pots around to get them in position for winter. Today I may pot up some volunteer tree seedlings.

A tree frog with a green outer edge/belly/face and a tan back and legs sits crouched in a large leaf. It has distinct dark eye stripes and some spots and whooshes of dark on his back.

Just foraged 1.2kg of Bullace for jam making next week. I have verified as best I can that these are indeed Bullace. 1. Sloes, I know are smaller and have thorny branches. 2. Damsons are oval in shape. 3. Bullace are round, bigger than sloes and have no thorns. Am I right? #Bullace #Foraging

For #WorldRiversDay, I'm sharing a poem I wrote about the storm of 1987 that rolled off the Irish Sea and along the River Mersey. The promenade was literally destroyed, but over the years, it's been rebuilt. The Mersey is a tidal river, with a long history of shipping and smuggling. #Rivers #Coast

In traditional folklore, the October full moon is known as the Badger Moon. Badgers use this bright moonlight to forage, cut dry grass or bracken with their teeth, and turn over their bedding bundles outside their dens to dry them before winter. #Folklore #FullMoon #Badgers #OriginalArt
